Review | New MUA pro-brow kit

I was in Superdrug the other day wanting a new brow kit, I picked up the "Look" kit after hearing such good reviews, but as I approached the counter my eyes stumbled upon MUA's new pro-brow kit for £2.50, and as it is significantly cheaper than Look's kit I thought I'd give it a go. It comes with 3 colours, a wax, an angled brush (which is actually okay to use) and a little pair of shoddy tweezers. I tried using the tweezers but they are really bad! so I just use my Boots Essentials ones, they get the job done. As for the shade in this kit I am the darkest one, it doesn't exactly cover people with black eyebrows but I would say it is good for people with light blonde - ashy shades of dark brown. As for the colours they are sort of an eyeshadowy texture, very powdery but they do "stick" to the brow, I think the wax is quite good to for the price I payed. For the palette as I whole I would say that it is deffo worth checking out, even though I must say I wish I bought the Look one too because of the amount of stuff you get in it. Tell me what you think :)

My naked brow (ooooohh hehe)

My brows after I used the kit, admittedly the quality of this is a bit crap but you get the jist. 

I hate snow!

Yes I will admit it is rather rare but I despise snow! I don't get how people like it, it's cold, wet, freezing and cold!
But despise this I do like the way it looks, sledging is also fun but after I fall off and get a lump of snow down my neck it suddenly looses its appeal.

Anyway I took a couple of pretty pictures of the snow today woo! (and yes of course I've added filters!)

Personal | New Year's Resolutions

So here we go! these probably won't get done but oh well:

1) Try to think optimistically instead of pessimistically.
2) Actually revise more for exams instead of procrastinating.
3) Try to tone up and do more exercise for Zante (I know everyone has to have some sort of health related resolution). 
4) Drink less fizzy drinks and more water.
5) Get a hobby and stick to it.
6) Find out what you really want to do in the future and do a little to make it come true.
7) Read all of the books stored on my Kindle.


I wish you all the very best 2013!

Favourites | My top 3 Sleek products

My top 3 Sleek products:

Storm i-divine palette - Reviewed by many but honestly this is my favourite palette at the moment, and it can be used as a dupe to the Naked palette. It contains 2 matte shades and the rest vary in shimmer, but i just cover the shimmer with a little bit of a matte shade.

Glossed in Whisper - I rarely wear lipgloss but when I do I wear this on top of a light pink lipliner, it looks so cute.

Glo in Bronze Baby - Perfect for both bronzing and highlighting but I wish I got the lighter shade (Peach Shimmer) as i'm very pale.
